The NRL has confirmed Manase Fainu will be the subject of the No-Fault Stand Down rule, should he be granted bail.

Fainu is currently in jail after he was denied bail by a magistrate, and will need to face court again after it was alleged he stabbed a man during an altercation on Friday night.

The NRL has released the following statement surrounding the Fainu incident.

The National Rugby League has today advised the Manly Warringah Sea Eagles that Manase Fainu will be subject to the No-Fault Stand Down rule should he be granted bail prior to the completion of court proceedings.

Fainu was today charged with the offences of wound person with intent to cause grievous bodily harm, affray and reckless grievous bodily harm in company and has been denied bail. He will automatically be stood down from all matches, including the Club Nines and the NRL Premiership, on a no-fault basis until court proceedings are completed.

  1. So let me get this…Fainu is a church goer who stabbed a man after a church service with intent to cause grievous bodily harm….clearly he didn’t listen to the priests sermon… career over?

  2. Lets hope the bloke does not go into the same cell block at Long Bay Bighouse as that numbnut Souths fan went into.

    The big boys had their way with that Souths nutter. He was released after a while but only came out as a SHADOW of a man. @ forever in those bigboysShadows

  3. Most Souths fans have three teeth, Shadow to the pleasure of those big rough Long Bay boys had no teeth after a day, @ Shadow the Gummy Bear.

  4. Maybe the aledged victim will radically change their version of the event between now and the next court appearance and he’ll be free to re-sign with Manly.

  5. It’s serious stuff. I’m no big fan of Manly’s either. Yet, you still have to feel a little bit sorry for Manly supporters & sorry that these things keep happening.
    It could also easily be a player from any club Eels .
    Tongue in cheek. I’d say you have signed a lot of Panthers lately Eels. So don’t forget about May!
    Though, it was a funny comment Eels!

  6. There was none of this in the clive churchill era our players from souths used their fists like real men did to settle an argument back in those days, but nowadays they are a gutless one punch thug or they use a weapon like this low life coward (deport him asap)
